Inventory management built for construction teams
Track materials, tools, and consumables across warehouses and job sites. Reduce emergency supply runs, prevent shrinkage, and keep every project phase on schedule.
Who this is for
General contractors, specialty subcontractors, site operations teams, tool crib managers, and project coordinators who need real-time material visibility across distributed sites.
Pre-built construction setup
Start with a recommended branch and zone structure designed for construction operations. Customize as you go.

Civil and infrastructure projects
Distributed yards and staging areas create location confusion
Zone model for yard, staging, active workfront, and return or repair hold
Interior fit-out teams
High-velocity consumables run out unexpectedly
Auto min/max for fast movers with weekly review by project phase
Equipment-heavy operations
Rental, owned, and repair states are mixed in one list

How Stocklyst helps
AI Import Engine
Spreadsheet headers never match import schema — Upload any CSV or Excel, confirm AI mapping, and validate before import
Auto min/max calculation
Replenishment is reactive and causes emergency supply runs — Research-based reorder points for high-use consumables and core materials by branch
Expiry tracking
Date-sensitive materials are used past their shelf life — Zone-level expiry dates with automatic near-expiry monitoring across all sites
Zone-level tracking
Teams cannot locate tools and materials quickly — Precise zone model for warehouse and job sites with required quantity by zone
Bundle management
Standard setup kits are manually tracked — Define common task kits and monitor component availability across locations
Variant management
Material sizes and grades are tracked separately without grouping — Group material variations under one parent item with independent SKU and quantity per variant
Related item links
Complementary task materials are not linked for coordinated ordering — Link complementary materials so stock for related job-site needs is visible together
Offline mobile app
Field updates are delayed due to connectivity gaps — Scan, count, and adjust offline at remote sites, sync when back online
Frequently asked questions
- Can I track materials across multiple job sites and a central warehouse?
- Yes. Create a branch for each job site and your central warehouse. Zones within each branch represent staging areas, active workfronts, and storage. Transfers track every material movement.
- How do I manage tools vs consumable materials?
- Use tags to classify items as tools or materials. Tools can be tracked with status tags (owned, rental, repair) while consumables use auto min/max for replenishment.
- Can I link inventory usage to specific projects?
- Use the Project Code custom field to associate materials with jobs. Filter and report by project to see consumption, transfers, and remaining stock per project.
- Does it work at remote job sites with no internet?
- The mobile app works fully offline. Field teams can scan, count, and adjust inventory with no connectivity, then sync automatically when signal returns.
